Are There Any Slipstream Owners Out There? Would like to correspond with owners/operators.

I've been offered a set of streamlined stainless wires for my bipe project that have come off a ground looped airplane. The vendor says that only one was very slightly damaged, the threaded end being bent just enough that the rod end wouldn't screw in al the way. He straightened it with a...

It was getting on towards 2:30 in the afternoon and my passenger was a little anxious about getting his wife to a 3:30 doctor's appointment. We had just fueled up at Shelton airport and were headed back to Port Orchard and my pickup truck. I leveled off at 1,500' and pushed the throttle in. ....

I'm trying to locate a used Shadin fuel flow transmitter part number 660534S or 660534R for my project. A working pull with no documentation is just fine (as long as it works). Thanks! Larry Edit return to reply: larry at skagitmedia.com
